Legolas Greenleaf was his name.
A name feared by all enemies of good, all servants of the now fallen dark Lord, Sauron. A name respected for his bravery and loyalty in battle, but also a name loved.
He was an elf and therefore beautiful, with an ethereal aura surrounding his body, and long golden hair which flooded over his shoulders, kept out of his vision by two strong braids, but his beauty was more than the gift of elves.
His beauty was unmatched by even the Evenstar, and tales of his beauty were told amongst all of the remaining elves of Arda.
But he returned for the Wars of the Ring different, his eyes betrayed an inner sadness that had worried the Lord Elrond greatly. All who saw Legolas now saw him not as the great warrior of the tales they had heard about him, but as a lonely figure fading like the sun setting, but never rising again.
It was then that Lord Elrond decided something had to be done to heal this great warrior and to discover what pained him so. Late in the Autumn Elrond summoned Legolas, and he came.
And thus begins our story, with the last coming of Legolas Greenleaf son of Thandruil King of Mirkwood to the Last Homely Home, Rivendale.
